Nfl.com says Jets are warming up to him and were reportedly impressed by his pro day.That is more than enough to say we want him.Do you want them to explicitly state we will trade up,so every team knows?

Carroll coached Barkley for one year, I don't think he knows him that well. It's been 3 years since he has coached him. Most likely not even on the Seahawks radar since he decided to not come out for the 2012 draft.

Good point, what I am concerned with is what Pete thought of him last year before Barkley announced he wasn't coming out

Is this the first draft you've followed?

Teams get "interested" and "impressed" with players all the time. Most of it doesn't mean a thing ... it's just smokescreens to hide who they are actually interested in. Or to try to get that guy picked so that another guy is available at your spot. And so on.

Next week you'll probably read about another top pick that we're "impressed" with.

ok, where's the one that says they 'want him'. Arizona and Buffalo, both ahead of the Jets, are even more desperate for a QB.

Apparently, the Card's are smarted than us....they don't want him and REFUSE to draft him......it's ok to infer that from this link right? it's at least as good as the inference from the original link.

I would love for the Jets to take Barkley. It's so dumb from you all when you think you know every USC QB is going to suck.

Need I inform you that different people go to school there? Just because we got one sh*t QB from USC does not mean all of them will be that way.

No Offense Maine and we usually agree but.................it's not just that Sanchez sucks (he does and always will) it's the long history of QB's from that school that flourished in a pro-style offense but haven't really amounted to anything special at the pro level. That being said I haven't watched enough of Barkley to make a decision either way.....but the odds on him doing well are against him.

The QB from USC whose had a decent career out of all those QB's is Palmer. So they've had one good QB in the NFL in the last 30 years. So I think it's fair to say it's not a smart idea to draft a QB from USC
